About the Project:

This study seeks to understand the interface between research (knowledge) and action (policy), using the SANREM-TMPEGS projects in the Philippines and Vietnam as the cases under study. It aims to provide an overview of the research, development and extension system of these two countries from national to local level, analyze the approaches and strategies adopted by the SANREM-TMPEGS projects to better link research knowledge to project participants, and identify key issues and lessons learned for improving the knowledge-action linkage.

Accomplishments:
• Conducted baseline data collections (e.g. KI interviews)
• Drafted case study reports of the Philippines and Vietnam
